Human vital-sign sensing using electromagnetic wave has emerged as a promising technology for the noninvasive monitoring of individuals’ health status. Here, a modular reprogrammable metasurface system is presented t...

Abstract Building energy consumption is dominated by lighting and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, whose operation is often inefficient due to inadequate control strategies and unreliable occupa...

Abstract Background and hypothesis CD5L is a glycoprotein induced during inflammation and makes a life-saving contribution in infection and sepsis. Here, we explored the immunomodulatory effect of CD5L in rheumatoid arth...

No Nordeste Paraense alguns agricultores familiares têm implantado pequenas áreas de pastagens e manejado pequenos rebanhos com o objetivo de aplicar eventuais ganhos obtidos com os cultivos, criando uma poupança a se...

Abstract Background Health insurance is essential for providing access to healthcare, particularly for older individuals. Disparities in awareness and understanding among elderly individuals in urban and rural areas may ...

Abstract Background Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide and impose a substantial financial burden on patients and their families, particularly in low-income and conflict-affec...

Abstract This study investigates the compressive behavior and analytical modeling of natural and rubberized concretes confined with cost-effective glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) jackets. Forty-two cylindrical spec...

Abstract Objective To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of zanubrutinib compared to ibrutinib in the first-line treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) / small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) from the perspective of the...

Introduction . Cutaneous leiomyomas are rare, benign smooth muscle neoplasms of the skin. According to the origin of the tumor, there are three types of cutaneous leiomyomas: piloleiomyomas, angioleiomyomas and genital l...

Abstract Background Decompressive craniectomy (DC) is a life-saving measure in severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), but its long-term functional outcome and the time of subsequent cranioplasty remain debated. Recent evid...

Abstract Background and Objectives pediatric Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is critical for saving children who experience cardiac arrest, but traditional teaching is often ineffective at improving clinical competen...

Abstract The multi-fidelity Kriging model is a promising technique in surrogate-based design, balancing model accuracy and the cost of sample generation by combining low- and high-fidelity data. However, the cost of buil...

Ride-pooling has the potential to offer a sustainable solution for urban mobility by reducing vehicle use and emissions through shared trips. However, its adoption remains limited due to poor matching performance. Many r...

Trajectory reconstruction from sparse and noisy GPS data is critical for applications such as urban mobility analysis, transportation planning, and navigation systems. However, large sampling intervals and the typically ...

This paper describes an easy and time-saving strategy for the fabrication of heterogeneous nanotubular arrays of TiO2-CdS (TCHNTAs) on transparent conductive glass (FTO) and their photoelectrochemical properties. The use...

The capacity to produce nanostructured materials with well-defined, specific properties in relatively large quantities is crucial for the viability of emerging nanotechnologies. Core@shell plasmonic structures, such as S...

Abstract Most cancers occur in older people and the burden in this age group is increasing. Over the past two decades the evidence on how best to treat this population has increased rapidly. However, implementation of ne...

Abstract Grapes (Vitis vinifera) are a globally important high-value crop produced for fresh consumption, wine, and processed derivatives. Growing pressure from labor shortages, climate variability, and sustainability de...

Introduction: The burden of disease attributable to tobacco use in Latin America is very high. Our objective was to evaluate the 10-year potential impact of current legislation related to cigarette packaging and warnings...

Abstract Background The ageing and growing population, rising cancer rate, and increased healthcare demand drive higher medical costs. Integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) into oncology revolutionizes cancer diagnosi...

Abstract Climate change poses significant strain on global water supplies, necessitating robust adaptive measures in irrigated agriculture to ensure food security. Adhering to PRISMA guidelines, this study provides a sys...

Interlocking concrete pavers (ICPs) require substantial cement consumption, resulting in considerable embodied carbon emissions, while the regional availability of conventional supplementary cementitious materials is bec...

IntroductionToday, the rapid acceleration of urbanization has made it necessary to reconsider the balance among energy consumption, environmental sustainability, and quality of life. Buildings, which account for a signif...

Abstract Microrobotic systems offer significant potential for precision medicine by enabling minimally invasive interventions in complex fluidic environments. However, effective operation in these settings requires actua...
